The 1 Mysterious Connection Between Frozen Shoulder, Banana Bread, and the Need to Create
The link between food, pain, and creativity
My Little Story
Two years ago I came down with a very painful and debilitating condition known as “frozen shoulder.” I was unable to move, lift, rotate, or use my right arm for over a year. I couldn’t wash my hair, towel off after a shower, open my car door, drive, write, sleep, dress, or do any of the other things we humans take for granted. Brushing my teeth was even a chore.
And not to be a “woe is me” kind of person, but, after the right shoulder finally healed, my other shoulder became injured. Maybe from over use. I went through the whole process again for at least another year.
It has been said that stress can be a factor in frozen shoulder. I had problems, we all have problem, so who knows.
My life had become one desperate chiropractic and physiotherapy appointment after another. It was expensive. It was really awful. I couldn’t put my coat on. A poncho had become my best friend.
Frozen shoulder is referred to as idiopathic. The medical profession is not sure of the cause. It was painful and very discouraging.
Moving Forward.
